Open exe file with Docker

Hi All,

I'm try to install mcr in docker so that I could run different mcr in my pc.

FIrst I build my docker file :

# Line 1: Use dotnet-framework base image
FROM microsoft/dotnet-framework

# Line 2: Download MCR installer (self-extracting executable) and save as ZIP file
ADD https://www.mathworks.com/supportfiles/downloads/R2018b/deployment_files/R2018b/installers/win64/MCR_R2018b_win64_installer.exe C:\\MCR_R2018b_win64_installer.zip

# Line 3: Use PowerShell
SHELL ["powershell", "-Command", "$ErrorActionPreference = 'Stop'; $ProgressPreference = 'SilentlyContinue';"]

# Line 4: Unpack ZIP contents to installation folder
RUN Expand-Archive C:\\MCR_R2018b_win64_installer.zip -DestinationPath C:\\MCR_INSTALLER

# Line 5: Run the setup command for a non-interactive installation of MCR
RUN Start-Process C:\MCR_INSTALLER\bin\win64\setup.exe -ArgumentList '-mode silent', '-agreeToLicense yes' -Wait

# Line 6: Remove ZIP and installation folder after setup is complete
RUN Remove-Item -Force -Recurse C:\\MCR_INSTALLER, C:\\MCR_R2018b_win64_installer.zip

After that, I build my docker image [PowerShell]

docker build -t testing -f ./DockerFile.txt .

Then, after that I run the exe file (in GUI), however, there is an error.

docker run testing myapplication.exe

I'm new to docker, anyone can help me?

I guess my docker image does not include java dependencies. It might be the problem. However, i'm not sure.
